The governor confronted the soldiers on the BRT lane located at the Outer Marina in Central Lagos. While Staff Sergeant Adeomi drove in a black Toyota Camry, Col. Yusuf was driving a green Peugeot 406.
While the governor approached the oncoming vehicle, Col. Yusuf came down from his car all apologetic, saluting and mumbling, "I am sorry; very, very sorry"
The media and spectators watched as the governor berated the military man saying, "Why, as a senior military officer, would you choose to break the law instead of preserving it?"
Fashola described the violation of the law by those who are meant to defend it "very unfortunate" adding But it signifies my commitment and the commitment of the Lagos State Government that all those who will not comply with our laws should leave our state. We will not back down.
"There is a zero tolerance for lawlessness. There is zero tolerance for breach of our regulations and we are going to do more of this. We are going to take control of our traffic. We cannot build our way out of traffic congestion; our responsibility is to manage traffic and manage congestion".
Meanwhile, the Lagos State House of Assembly had on July 12 passed a bill originating from the executive arm which is meant to impose sanctions on erring vehicle users in the state.
